Dow AgroSciences is once again expanding production of SmartStax hybrids to meet customer demand for the 2011 growing season. The company produced a significant amount of SmartStax hybrids during summer production.

"To keep up with positive customer demand, we will ramp up winter production to ensure adequate supply of elite SmartStax hybrids," said Casey Onstot, traits marketing manager for Dow AgroSciences. "We have an excellent supply of seed from our summer production, and the additional quantity we gain through winter production will ensure we can meet customer demand for SmartStax hybrids. Regardless of the location or season of production, growers can have full confidence in the Dow AgroSciences trait introgression and breeding process."
